Answer 1

Answer:

The company's net income for 2015 is loss $62,000 ( -$62,000)

Explanation:

During 2015, Rainbow Umbrella Corp. had sales of $730,000

Total expense for 2015 = Cost of goods sold + Administrative and selling expenses + Depreciation expenses + Interest expense = $450,000 + $90,000 + $160,000 + $92,000 = $792,000

Sales - Total expense = $730,000 - $792,000 = -$62,000<0

The company recorded loss in 2015 the amount of $62,000 and didnot have to pay tax.
